Fabulous String
Have been using this exact string for approx 6 years. Beautiful tone, warm, yet clear, and IMHO, easier movement of fingers on the string than many others. Less crisp thsn the nano version, but this suits me. The 12/53 suits me, but I intend on trying the 12/56s at some point.
Not a cheap string, but worth the money imo.
Highly recommended.

Really warm
Great replacement for my HB CLA-16SCE acoustic which had originally D'Addario EXP-16. Initially I went with nanoweb, the feel was excellent, but the tone was not there (too bright).
With these strings, the guitar sounds really well rounded and punchy.

Sufficient for working musicians
Sound takes a bit more than other strings to settle, in the meantime it's too metallic. Then the strings sound ok for a few weeks, not too elegant but quite brittle and reliable to dial up your sound with eq, effects etc. After that time the sound goes mediocre. Thus they do last long , but not with great sound for the lasting time they claim!

Strange feel
I use Polyweb on electric guitar, so wanted to give it a try on acoustic. Ordered light set: 0.12 - 0.53
Feel of the strings under the hand was harsher than Nanoweb. Durability of strings was also noticeably shorter then Nanoweb.
Sound was OK-ish.
I would not recommend Polyweb for acoustic guitar.

They sound great and last a long time
Exactly what you'd expect from Elixir.
Nice and bright sound with tight mids and lows, last a very long time.
Depending how you play, the coating might start chipping off where you strum, but that's just how it goes.

Worth the price!
They may be one of the more expensive guitar strings out there, but trust me, they're worth it. The sound and feel of these is fantastic! And they actually last much, much longer so in a long run, you'll actually save money on strings with these!

warm strings
I use these string with a Taylor 114.
These are just the perfect strings for the sound I am looking for, a mildly dark and warm sound.
These strings are a feasible alternative to the elixir nanoweb, and they are great in taming the otherwise excessive brightness of the Taylor.

very good
Elixir strings have given back life to my guitar. I prefer the bronze ones normally but for one of my guitars I always take this one as they are smooth sounding and yet with excellent dynamic

Polyweb vs nanoweb
Eternal war I tell you! But war or not you cannot make a mistake getting Elixirs. I personally like nanoweb more and thats why I gave 1 star less, but it realy depends on you. Try both, they are great!
I would say nanowebs have a bit unique low end and polywebs are a bit softer. Cheers

Awesome strings
I love Elixir strings. Best quality in my opinion. I normally use Nanoweb but decided to try these on my Taylor Big Baby as they advertised a warner tone, and I wanted to get a fuller sound from the small body of the guitar. Works as described: They deliver a warmer and richer tone compared to the Nanoweb. I also find them smoother to play along the neck. Perfect for my needs.
